NetkitLabs Links

This page contains a collection of links to external pages that provide Netkit labs, tutorials, documentation, and other similar resources. This area is supposed to accommodate labs which make use of purposefully customized Netkit components (e.g., kernel, filesystem, etc.) and other resources which, to facilitate maintenance or because of space constraints, cannot be published in the Contributed Labs area.

Other links can be submitted by contacting us. In no way we are responsible for the contents of pages and resources linked from the index below.

• TorLab – A Netkit lab configured to run a Tor virtual network. Includes usage instructions as well as tutorials to build the custom filesystem required to run the experiments. Maintained by the Networking Group of the Dept. Electronics Engineering of the University of Rome "Tor Vergata". Submitted by Csaba Kiraly on 2007/12/06.

• Creating a Vyatta filesystem for use with Netkit – Vyatta is a scalable and extensible open source routing platform. This tutorial explains how to create a Netkit filesystem image that merges the standard image with the official Vyatta VMWare virtual appliance.

• OpenWRT virtual machines for Netkit – OpenWRT is a Linux distribution for embedded devices that can be run on many commercially available modems, routers, and access points. This page briefly describes the steps to tweak OpenWRT (including kernel and filesystem) to run as a Netkit virtual machine.
